Power
Configurations
Examples
The high/low voltage and dual-power supply capabilities of the ProLiant DL360 G3
server makes it adaptable to a variety of power configurations. Each of the following
examples suggests a method of power distribution for a group of servers mounted in a
rack. These examples illustrate server power configurations only as well as ways to
accomplish server management using iLO and KVM switching products and do not take
into account such accessories as KVM switches and display monitors that are typically
included in an installation.
